Imphal, October 19 2015:
The Lamlai Municipality Development Committee has decried the alleged intimidation and attempt to assault BJP Manipur Pradesh general secretary L Basanta by some individuals yesterday.
Lamlai Municipality Development Committee Ward No 5 general secretary Pebam Sushila said that some persons attempted to assault Basanta as a women exclusive political conference was coming to an end at Lamlai yesterday.
BJP Manipur Pradesh general secretary (administration) M Ashnikumar, BJP Vision Document 2020 chairman Dr RK Ranjan and RTI cell convenor M Poireihanba were also present at the conference.
As the conference was coming to an end, a group of people led by Kh Ibobi of Nongada and Inaocha of Tellou raised an uproar.
As Poireihanba and Basanta tried to board a car, they dragged away Basanta.
They also threatened to smash the car, Sushila alleged.
Basanta was rescued only after the intervention of a large group of women.
Sushila demanded that all those involved in the assault and intimidation should be booked and punished according to law.
She said that a report has been filed at Lamlai police station.
